Another PHEV variant of the upcoming 'e-tron' vehicles for the Europeans; translates to about 30 miles 100% electric range -- its Euro starting MSRP of 44,250 would translate to a little over $48K USD but of course that doesn't include what VW would need to do for US crash and emissions testing so who knows how much if they ever decided to bring it over.

Appears to be of a decent size and I've always loved the utility of wagons (typically called 'estate car'; 'sportbrake' or 'shooting-brake' overseas) and the Jetta wagon seems to still do OK here.
